California Purchase Loan

A California purchase loan is, quite simply, a loan made to purchase a property in California. There are no special rules in California that make loans different from elsewhere in the country (apart from state-specific details of the contract law) so a loan in the state is very much the same as one in any other state.

So a California purchase loan is just like that in other states. It can be a fixed rate mortgage (FRM) or an adjustable one (ARM), it can have positive or negative amortization, it can be a cash-out refinance, for an investment property, for a house, multiple units and so on. All the wonderful variations of the mortgage market right across the country. The one restriction of course is that by its very name it is restricted to being used to purchase property inside California.

That’s it really, a California purchase loan is just that, a loan to purchase something in California. The guys in Sacramento in the state government haven’t come up with any bright new plans to “help” which is a good things of course. As Ronald Reagan (a former Governor of California) pointed out the most frightening words in the English language are “I’m here from the Government and I’m here to help”.
